[Intro]
GmDmGmDmGmDmGmDm
[Verse]
DmGmDm
Hear me now oh thou bleak and unbearable world
GmA7
Thou art base and debauched as can be
DmGmDm
And a knight with his banners all bravely unfurled
EmCmD
Now hurls down his gauntlet to thee!
[Chorus]
G
I am I, Don Quixote
The Lord of La Mancha
Bm
Destroyer of Evil am I.
G
I will march to the sound of
The trumpets of glory
BmD
Forever to conquer or die!
[Verse]
DmGmDm
Hear me heathens and wizards and serpents of sin
GmA7
All your dastardly doings are past
DmGmDm
For a holy endeavor is now to begin
EmCmD
And virtue shall triumph at last!
[Chorus]
G
I am I, Don Quixote
The Lord of La Mancha
Bm
A Name all the world soon will know.
G
And the wild winds of fortune
Will carry me onward
BmD
Oh, whither so ever they blow.
[Segue]
BmD
Whither so ever they blow
G
Onward to Glory I go!
[Chorus]
G
I am I, Don Quixote
The Lord of La Mancha
Bm
A Name all the world soon will know.
G
And the wild winds of fortune
Will carry me onward
BmD
Oh, whither so ever they blow.
[Outro]
BmD
Whither so ever they blow
G
Onward to Glory I go!
